 Some trees are valuable, not only for their timber, but will yield an in- come while growing. The sugar maple is one of these. Its timber ranks very high for both fuel and lumber. The sap taken from it during the brief season of sugar making makes no perceptible re- duction in its vitality, or check in it's growth, and the cost of the syrup or sugar, made from it is small. The nec- essary fuel is supplied by fallen branches, or branches which should be cut out, and the work comes at sea- son when very little else can be done on the farm. There is no expense for planting or cultivation Expensive ap- pliances are not required, and the work can all be done at home. Maple syrup orsugar known to be pure always finds a ready sale at good price.-M E. Kramer

Why a Venerable Maider Lady Had to Part With an Initiative Bird.

Why q Venerable Maider Lady Had to
 Part With an Initiative Bird.
 A gentleman residing in Ceylon wished to make present to a maiden aunt of his living in London, and he could think of nothing so suitable and likely to be a source of amusement to her as a mina-a small bird, corresponding in appear ance and size to an English blackbird, and riv- aling the parrot in powers of imitation. Procuring good specimen of the species, fresh from the forest he set a watch upon his own tongue, avoiding all slang, and being very careful in respect of grammar. Then, taking the bird on board vessel about to sail for England he gave it to the ships cook, with a promise that if the bird was de livered into the hands of the lady with it's vocabulary undefiled a bonus of ten shillings would be forthcoming, whereupon the cook promised to take all possible care of the bird-to nourish him and watch over his morals. On the voy- age the nina exercised a marked infiu- ence for good over one part, at least, ot the vessel, and the cooks cuddy was g perfect hall of propriety, and in due course he received his ten shillings. few weeks passed, and then the gentle man in Ceylon received letter from his aunt. She thanked him for his gift, but said she had been obliged to part with the mina-not, however, on account of the ex- pressions he made use of, for his language was correctness itself, but she could not endure all day long plaintive crie5 oi "Stewardl" with marvellous, nevnr-ceas- ing limitations of the distressful sounds issuing from the lips of passengeSa SkRer- ing from seasickness.
